CLOSE TO WINTER SEASON BRINGS TRAFFIC RECORDS TO PRESTOSPORTS NETWORK

ROCKVILLE, Md. - PrestoSports, a leading provider of web sites to college athletics, continues to set traffic records across the network. In the month of February, clients across the network saw a 300% growth in traffic from one year ago. To meet the traffic spike, PrestoSports has added more technology to the network. 

"We've upgraded our webserver, both to offer clients a newer version and to handle more requests. We've also added compression for our livestats which will make our servers run faster and customers will see their updates even faster," PrestoSports CEO Serge Knystautas said. "We've also added another application server into the pool to help us handle the load."

More sites and more content advancements have given PrestoSports clients reasons to drive traffic to their sites. ECAC Hockey's final weekend of the regular season resulted in a record of over 10,000 visits to its site on Friday night and nearly 2,500 visitors checked out the mobile scoreboard over the weekend. Sites such as WPI have made their athletics home more of a destination with livestats updating their schedules and a posting of video reaction to the men's basketball team's selection to the NCAA tournament has already received almost 600 visits.

"As the network continues to grow, we're excited to help meet the challenge," Knystautas added.
